A fully custom rc boat that I designed when I was 16 for a high school class. I used this project as an excuse to develop my CAD abilities and get exposure to 3D printing. The entire assembly was first designed in CAD to package and integrate all components. The hull was rapid prototyped and features a flat bottom to get the boat up on plane when moving to reduce drag and built in channels to improve thrust from the propellers. The bow has an integrated wireless camera that can live stream to a laptop. The boat is powered by a lithium battery and two high speed electric motors. The motors have full forward-reverse speed control and use a servo actuated rudder system to steer. I named this boat Murphy’s Law because of the huge number of things that went wrong, but ultimately it was a project that I consider successful and learned a tremendous amount from.
